And Klopp, who is without injured strikers Daniel Sturridge, Divock Origi and Danny Ings, will reluctantly enter a "crazy" market if he can find a long-term solution to Liverpool's problems.

"We have to watch the market, to think about what makes sense for us now plus for the summer," the Liverpool boss said ahead of Saturday's trip to Norwich.

"If we find a solution which fits for both transfer windows, winter and summer, and a player could help us as quickly as possible then of course we would try.

"I have always said we will watch the market and we will see if something happens, there are a few days to go. If there is a good player and we see a longer option with time to work together - and not only for three games and then all the others come back - then we would think about it.

Asked about Teixeira he said: "There's nothing to say about this. We can talk about any player in the world if we had time for it."
